Scholarship and/or Professional Development. 6.6.1 Tenure and tenure-earning faculty members shall be expected to engage in appropriate scholarship and/or professional development activities as specified in the departmental bylaws and annual evaluations.
Scholarship and/or Professional Development. The Master Agreement specifies that the Department shall provide a listing of the types of scholarship and professional development activities that are considered appropriate for these criteria in this department. Types of peer review are described that may be demonstrated in biology. The following sections then provide descriptions of scholarly activities based on the four forms of scholarship, as well as professional development activities, with examples of artifacts that might be produced by these endeavors. It is common for activities to meet the definitions offered for more than one of the forms of scholarship.
Scholarship and/or Professional Development. Each evaluation must include a statement of goals for the future and a review of accomplishments. The Professional Responsibilities, Section 6 of the Bylaws, lists acceptable forms of intellectual contributions. Faculty must maintain appropriate AACSB faculty qualification status and provide evidence of how they are meeting these standards. The College of Business and AACSB uses a five-year rolling window to evaluate faculty qualification status. For AACSB purposes, faculty are required to submit evidence of their scholarship and/or professional development impact. ResearchGate and Google Scholar are preferred sources of impact evidence, and faculty are encouraged to maintain a public profile. Faculty must include accepted or published peer-reviewed journal articles and evidence of other scholarly and professional development activities.
